This is how I remember getting taught in Wood Shop classes back in the 80's. It's a slow, methodical, and fun process to get wood pieces polished and waxed just right. I like how he mentions about getting the piece flung across the room! LOL, I can't tell you how many times that happened to me back then! God, I am sooooo lucky that I never got whacked or hit anyone else.

Fantastic instructional video. I learned exactly what I need to know and how to do it correctly. The details about the grit content and the pad composition. Straight and to the point, no grandstanding or endless, narcissistic needless banter. I never leave a comment on anyone's video. I have never been compelled. Until now. You now have another happy subscriber. Thank you.

Beautiful finishes especially the oil soaked piece. What oil do you use and can other oils also be used? Also I see you use the loose cotton buff wheels. Do they produce better results than a stitched cotton buff ? I make knives and wondered if I could get Deven better finishes with the loose cotton wheels??

Also if u do fine sanding after the danish oil is that a bad idea, I noticed some guys sand apply a finish like oil or laq, then sand that to 2k 3k before the Buffing? Looks. Nice thanks

Just finished watching your first video in this series. Could not leave a comment there so I'll do so here. First off, great presentation. One thing though. You are using the Beall system and failed to mention that a threaded rod could be used to hold the Morse taper in the head stock as well as the tail stock. I believe it takes a 1/4-20 threaded rod.

My application is to bring back the shine to wood chess pieces ... most are done on a lathe ... but the most spectacular pieces are the knights ... they are hand carved with lots of detail in the mane ... how important would it be for me to obtain a buffing machine of 900 rmp ? That seems hard to find? Suggestions?

Hi there - great video - thanks much for uploading. One question for you - can you use any bench grinder as a buffing machine? Is there a certain brand / hp / size you would suggest? Thanks!
@manuelvillalpando66652 жыл бұрын
I was thinking the same thing. I think that you can. We used bench top grinding machines back in our wood shop classes. With polishing and waxing is all about pressure, the right amount of time that the pressure is applied to the wood piece, the right compounds to use for both polishing and waxing, and have a general understanding about how wax behaves. I think that the most important thing to remember too is to have different cloth wheels for all your different compounds. Also ensuring that you dress the wheel prior to working with any new wood project. The later is especially true if you have not used your equipment in like a few weeks or months. You definitely don't want to have hardened compounds scratch and ruin the face of your wood project. I've done that a few times, and the only way to resolve that oversight is to go back to sanding again. Not a fun thing to do, especially when you have spent a good amount of time working on your wood project.

What compounds are you using, and is that beeswax? I've tried to polish with a green compound (which works great on metals) on Thai rosewood but it seems to get caught in the pores and discolors it. I tried to use as little compound as possible.

Do you use those hard brushes used to clean the files , to raise the fiber and obtain a smooth fiber all around ? this is a common method . I use a piece of wood too but thought it helped to warm the disk I was also told to use synthetic tallow on the cottons, I think it is mostly for metal polishing, or if the harder waxes are not greasy enough, but it protects the cotton that loose less fiber then I only polish brass hinges, casters , and polyester finishes on pianos, so my needs may be different from yours (using a heavy duty electrical polisher hold by a zero gravity balancer) My disks need to be hardened using carboard disks on their sides, (they are cut with a sharp blade when the disks wear) I also need to cut protuberating fibers regularly. and I cannot push hard as you as polyester may not warm too much or it melt and it get softer, degraded, above a certain temperature (which I'd like to know BTW) Best regards
